"I feel like the real world is trying to catch up with 'Veep,'" says costume designer Kathleen Felix-Hager of Selina Meyer's distinctively stylish Washington, D.C., look.

TV’s barely-crazier-than-life political satire “Veep” came to an end Sunday after seven seasons, during which Julia Louis-Dreyfus projected a vision of feminine presidential power in body-con dresses, designer handbags and shoes.

Now fans can bid on Louis-Dreyfus’ West Wing wardrobe, including her entire red dress collection and presidential portrait gown, and pieces by Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Victoria Beckham, Carolina Herrera, Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin, as well as looks worn by other cast members, starting at prices up to 70 percent off, on Screenbid.com.

While the state of women in politics has ebbed and flowed during the run of “Veep” (Hillary Clinton’s loss; the Democrat women’s gains in the U.S. House), Louis-Dreyfus’ look as fictional president Selina Meyer has stayed consistent. “I feel like the real world is trying to catch up with ‘Veep,'” says costume designer Kathleen Felix-Hager of Meyer’s distinctively stylish Washington, D.C., look. “But people have been more inspired in the real world to be braver in choice of color, and that’s been nice to see. If you can express yourself in a fun way and don’t feel like you have to blend in, it’s a step in the right direction.”

With just seven episodes, the final season of the HBO show has been jam-packed. “The retreat episode was fun because Selina had a casual, Western look,” says Felix-Hager, adding that she and Louis-Dreyfus “decided we were just going to go for it since it was the last season. We wanted to have fun and we succeeded, putting her in a lot of different color combos (a green skirt with a light blue blouse, for example) and colorful shoes you might not normally see a female politician wear.”

Although the auction includes more than 1,000 lots of costumes and props from all seven seasons, there is one item that isn’t there. Selina’s signature Celine “Edge” bag. “Miss JLD has that in her possession,” says Felix-Hager. “There were some things special to her, so she took a small assortment for her personal memories.”

“HBO understands the ‘Veep’ fan base very well and provided us the best storyline selections from all seven seasons. The props and wardrobe collections are really the best-of-the-best and we are excited that fans can select from such a robust assortment.” Jeffrey Dash, chief executive officer of Screenbid, said in a statement.

The online auction concludes June 1. HBO will provide an official Studio Certificate of Authenticity for all items sold.

You might not know who Beanie Feldstein is now, but the breakout star is poised to be a name synonymous with comedy. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Beanie stars in @OliviaWilde's directorial debut "Booksmart," opening today. The film has been dubbed the female "Superbad" — which is somewhat ironic since Beanie is actor Jonah Hill's younger sister. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
“She is sort of like Paris Geller meets Lisa Simpson with a little bit of Sandra Bullock in ‘Miss Congeniality.’ I liked the idea of showing that a girl can be silly and loose with her friends and also be really intense and kind of biting at school,” Beanie said of her character, Molly.⁣ ⁣
⁣
The actress also said that Wilde’s take on the story is “fresh and honest” and she was “whip-smart” in her directorial debut.⁣

Shailene Woodley has no desire to keep up with the superficial standards of Hollywood.⁣
⁣
“If you look at Hollywood — and I’m no saint in this regard — but every single time somebody gets a little bit more famous, they get a little bit thinner, and they get a little bit blonder, and they get a little bit more defined in their face,” Woodley says. ⁣
⁣
“There’s sort of this sense of machinery that can happen to people in the limelight, and I was very fortunate also at a young age to work with so many incredible, strong women who were already a little rebellious in their own ways against the machinery that can be this industry.” ⁣

Soccer superstar Lionel Messi is launching an apparel collection. ⁣
⁣
The Argentine athlete, who captains both FC Barcelona and the Argentina national team, has partnered with MGO, a brand portfolio company whose chief creative officer is Tommy Hilfiger’s sister, Ginny Hilfiger, to create Messi.⁣
⁣
The premium lifestyle brand with “a sporty edge” will be primarily men’s wear but will include a few women’s tops as well, according to Hilfiger.⁣
⁣
Hilfiger said despite his fame and wealth, Messi “is a really humble, generous and kind person and a great role model. He has been involved since we started talking to the Messi family two-and-a-half years ago when we presented the idea to them. ⁣

Shailene Woodley is an all-in or not-at-all kind of woman — leading her to get the reputation as the hippie of Hollywood. ⁣
⁣
She views her experience of “breaking out,” if you will, as a kind of shepherding by older, wiser female costars along the way, women she says helped her steel herself against the superficial demands of the industry. ⁣
⁣
One of those women, @reesewitherspoon, spoke to us about Woodley's inspiring performance on "Big Little Lies." “Her portrayal of a woman who is both a survivor of sexual assault and a single mother raising her child alone in a new community is one of the most truthful performances I’ve ever seen. There is a scene in episode two of this season where Jane explains her assault to Ziggy that moves me to tears every time I see it," Witherspoon said. ⁣
⁣
Woodley's acting choices have earned her a reputation for being a talented and utterly professional one to watch, but it’s her candid, unabashed activism in real-life that people are taking notice of. ⁣
⁣
“I think it’s very easy for all of us to be comfortable in our bubbles and to be comfortable in the lives of privilege that a lot of us live, to be comfortable in our own space, in our own opinions, in our own forms of what we think is right or wrong, black and white, justice and non-justice — but ultimately until every single person on this planet feels like they are treated like a proper human being, I’m not going to stop because more than anything, I’m just somebody who deeply feels,” Woodley said.
